Magnetic Resonance Imaging Lecture Notes

Overview & Synopsis

New magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
methodologies to better understand the human body. By shaping the
electromagnetic fields inside the MRI scanner we interact with these moments,
with which we can observe the structure, physiology and biochemistry of the
human body in vivo and non-invasively. Developing new ways of manipulating the
nuclear spins can provide us not only with important tools to diagnose disease,
but also with a better understanding of the basic biological processes which
govern us.
